Showerthought: my old way of cleaning a hull was a real grind until I tried a new tool

Three years ago on a job in Tampa, I spent 12 hours over two days hand-scraping a 40-foot sailboat hull. My boss just said, 'that's the job.' Last month, a guy on another crew showed me his CaviBlaster. I rented one for a small job last week and did the same size hull in under 4 hours. The difference is crazy.
